Which flights and how many people? The only thing we know is a woman who showed up late missed her flight. The 12:05 flight already left when the terrorist candy was screened, and the next flight was the 12:35 American.

The flights leaving after the American flight the woman was late for were very close to 1, so those people probably made their flights. To me it would seem that only one flight, the 12:35 American flight had a possibility of being affected, though again arriving at security a half hour before flight time is really pushing it.

Everything relating to people missing flights is related to the quote from one woman who was late anyways and relaying what the airline supposedly told her.

Nobody else has confirmed there was any delay.
